Brought to you by Te Pātaka Toi Adam Art Gallery On Further Thought is a series of talks which address significant moments — published texts, exhibitions, art works — in local art history from the 1990s and early 2000s. The emphasis is on the act of re-reading, and on reflection itself as a productive form of research that helps us to navigate the present and energises our future art histories. We are particularly interested in research that acknowledges a changing of one’s mind, addresses misconceptions, and attends to the archive as a site of lively reclamation or transformation.
Each presentation will be introduced, and followed by a brief critical response from Te Pātaka Toi director Abby Cunnane. In the interests of maintaining an open space for frank and spontaneous kōrero, the talks will not be recorded live but will be published as papers subsequently.
For the second in the series, writer and curator of contemporary art Balamohan Shingade presents Tethered Elsewhere a talk reflecting on How to Live Together, an exhibition Shingade curated in 2019 at St Paul St Gallery (now called Te Wai Ngutu Kākā Gallery).
